Free Will…Squirrels…and Stuff.

We watched through the kitchen window as a squirrel sat atop the fence and munched on a plant from my veggie garden.

KAYLEE:  Can I go out and chase him?

ME:  No, absolutely not.

KAYLEE:  Why?    I want to get close to it

ME:  No, you are not going out there.

MC to KAYLEE:   Go ahead!  You have free will….it’s in the Amendments…and stuff.

What has 4 legs, a bushy tail, is furry, and often finds itself in precarious situations when teasing big dogs?
Normally I’d say ‘Lunch!’ – But NOT on it’s LUCKY day!

When I originally snapped this pic, I thought I was getting a funny shot of the squirrel  sitting atop the rail and the dogs salivating below. But just as I snapped the photo, everyone in the house gasped loudly as the squirrel jumped down… within a foot of the dogs.

*The squirrel was NOT hurt! It landed right between the two dogs on the grass and ran faster than I’ve ever seen a squirrel run….and jumped up and over our fence.*  I’m pretty sure this is my once in a lifetime shot…lunch a squirrel in mid flight.

And this is why I don’t take him shopping with me.

…………………….. “Where are all the snacky foods this week?”

“I didn’t go to Aldi’s yet this week….if you wanna go with me, we can go now”
(not anticipating he’d…
in a million years…would actually want to go)

“Okay!  I’ll go with you, I have nothing else to do right now”

…..browsing through the aisles….filling our cart with dried fruits….cookies….nuts……we wheeled right into the….*angels singing/bright lights and rainbows*….. the ‘junk isle’……….
He says:

“Oh!  Wait!  Look at these!  How much are these?”

“$5.99.  How good can they be for a 3 pack of SAWS that cost $5.99????”

“But I can use these!  I need these!  And there’s only a few left!”

“If we get those….that’s $5.99 worth LESS of veggies and fruits we can buy”

*thinks a moment*  “I brought money.  I’m getting these.”

“Okay…it’s yourrrr money”

.

………and so they sit.  ready.  waiting.  to be used.  probably once before they break…….
